Reminds me of a joke:

2 nuns driving through Transylvania when a huge storm breaks out, sky black as night, thunder, lightning and torrential rain - so much so that the young novice who is driving is told by the mother superior to pull over to the side of the road. Suddenly, with a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder, Count Dracula appears, standing on the bonnet of the car.

"Oh mother superior, look - whatever shall we do"? exclaims the novice.

"Quickly" responds the mother superior "show him your cross"

So the novice winds down the window and shouts "Oi, get off the ****ing car you twat""

<laugh>...don't forget Oddy Carry On Doctor on tomorrow at 11.40am More 4.

Get the serotonin levels up before the festival opener!!
 
I think I am going to rename the festival to "hold onto that bloody horse for longer" festival <laugh> lets hope AP shows them how its done from the front in the next. Sir Des Champs is a brilliant sort, he is a Gold Cup horse of the future, and unlike GC and Bobs Worth, he won't have the RSA hoodoo
 
Nothing to do with peddlers being no good over fences. He is not the same horse since his champion hurdle second. Said that in my preview but still backed him lol

That's my exact views too and I also backed him<doh>

Just a view but I don't think that grounds quick at all which is why I've had a little each way on Rubi Light at 10s in the next as well as Somersby each way at 6s. I'm actually more confident about Rubi Light now. 10s is a Massive price and that grounds juicey enough....
 
i have a big fancy for pearl swan in the triumph but abit nervous about nicholls horses not running to well,saying that king isnt exactly on fire either:emoticon-0108-speec
 
Bloody hell i've got Rubi Light in the antepost comp at 20s. Already landed bob's worth and finians rainbow too and I didn't fancy either of them yesterday. wtf is going on....come on rubi light!! haha
 
Well the Nicholls and Pipe stables seem well out of sorts.

In the RSA im going to go for an old favourite KALHARI KING 33/1 he loves the course and looks like he has been prepared for another shot at winning here, ran a belter last year when just being touched off by ALBERTAS RUN 9/1, the year previous to that he finished 3rd in the Queen Mother Chase all told he has been placed on 3 of his 4 starts at Cheltenham and is worthy of some EW money.

The others I like that should run a cracking race are RUBI LIGHT 9/1 whos ws 3rd last year, MEDERMIT 9/1 and POQUELIN 20/1.
